I don't typically have unreasonable expectations of products and tend to be happy with a fair product for a fair price but, I have to admit, this is a great product for a great price with customer care that I don't always get even if I've spent A LOT more on a service or product.

My cooker arrived damaged. There was a significant ding in the side. I sent off an e-mail to the supplier and received a response promptly. They asked for photos of the damage.

Hey it took a while to get it since it's shipped from Canada, but while worth it. My wife has used it everyday since he got it.

Well worth the extra dollars compared to the other pressure cookers I was considering.
